Yes, those children WOULD be slaves. That was the point of the story.

One think I have wondered was about the story of the drunk nobles who had themselves tatooed as a lark and when the empress found out about it became property in truth. If they had any children after the children would probably be born property but what if they had offspring before their fall from grace. Would they share in their parents new status. I suspect they would be okay as under the Seanchan rule a free person seems to have to do something or fail in some way themselves to be made property but I wonder what anyone else things.
They would not! That was the context of the statement that the ravens which denote ownership by the Crystal Throne "were forever." That strongly suggests that while other slaves man be manumitted, to be property of the Crystal Throne is permanent.

DomA sorted it all out, but yes, I'd read that slavery was hereditary. *NM*
